Advanced Style On The Go In Roma: Men’s Edition


I have been running around Europe and I’ve finally arrived in beautiful Roma. After a delicious cup of gelato I hit the streets looking for Advanced Style. As I was walking around I noticed how beautifully the older men in rome dressed, even in very hot weather.Here are a few shots of Rome’s well dressed men on the go and don’t worry the ladies of rome will get their time to shine as well.

Take Notes from This “Very Old Grandmother”

I haven’t been able to post as much as I would like, as I have been doing a bit of travelling through Europe. I am very excited about my next stop in Rome, where I know I’ll find some great Advanced Style. The woman above, Rita, is one of the most amazing women I met while shooting in London. She writes here very own blog called VeryOldGrandmother.com where she shares tips on how to stay young and vital( and computer savvy) and clever anectdotes about her life.Do you guys know any other great blogs written my older ladies and gents, i think it would be great to compile a list!

Below is my favorite post from the Very Old Grandmother blog where Rita lists the things that her family members complain about and the things a fabulous older lady like her can still do! I hope you have the chance to read the rest of her posts and if you know of anyone I should meet during my travles to Italy please send me an email.
